The Old Soul's Guidebook: Who You Are, Why You're Here, & How to Navigate Life on Earth Paperback – April 8, 2019

Interesting concept.

Ainslie MacLeod’s new book, The Old Soul’s Guidebook: What You Are, Why You’re Here, and How to Navigate Life on Earth, is the perfect extension of his two previous books, The Instruction and The Transformation. Both of these earlier books (and several special personal sessions with Ainslie) have been integral to my life. An outline I once did of The Instruction’s sections—Soul Ages, Soul Types, Missions, Fears, Desires, Challenges, Investigations, Talents, Powers, Paths, with all the accompanying advantages and risks—I carry with me always and consult as needed. This third new book is the perfect follow-up. The subtitle of the new book—What You Are, Why You’re Here, and How to Navigate Life on Earth (with the most critical part for me How to Navigate Life on Earth)—tells exactly what the book offers. I am now on my second read, this time marking passages of particular current value (so far averaging two markings a page!). It is a privilege to be able to access this knowledge, and we are fortunate to have access to this guidance. Thank you, Ainslie. Many thanks, also, to your Spirit Guides.

This book is amongst the top "3" books I have ever read in my life. As a spiritual opened person the scenarios, examples and exercises were spot on. There was no judgment in this book, just universal love for all souls who are spiritually evolving. If you happen to read this comment, don't second guess! The knowledge provided here is a true gift.👍Thank You Mr. Macleod!A+++ 😇💫❤

This book is an easy to read guide on living your best life. Exercises to help implement concepts are included at the end of each chapter.

I’m unsure this is s a book for everyone, but it was an interesting read

I recommend this book to anyone that feels they are an old soul. It is enlightening and helpful in understanding the dynamics of today’s world.

As synchronicity would have it I was quite content with life (or so I thought) when I picked this book up, just wanting to know more about old souls. I later had some stress in my work life while reading this book that reminded me I have some yearning to have questions answered about my place in life now and wether it is what I am supposed to be doing as I just keep coming upon the same stressors...You know what they say about the definition of insanity is doing the same thing expecting a different outcome. Well, right now my work life feels like that but I don’t know how to get out of the cycle.So inspired by this book I have done some more Brian Wiess past life meditations and other meditations trying to meet my spirit guide and have answers. I believe I am making some headway, getting some understanding.The only thing I did not care for was the categorizing old souls into certain politics. Politics in general to me are for the kindergarteners of this world. Both sides just don’t get it in my humble opinion. But by the same token there are good ol’ souls with good intensions on both sides. But of course with all the bickering and mudslinging nothing good will come of it and I have no use for it in this lifetime as it triggers my anger issues at both (of the major) sides.For me I think I’m a really old soul that is a slow learner...Haha!!! Either that or a very spiritual-intuitive, middle-aged-soul that just feels a lot of apathy of some segments of humanity due to all the teenaged-like behavior surrounding it. All in all though I do feel there is a lot of wisdom to be had here.

I liked this book. The stories and explanations resonated with me. But the latter chapters are very political and a huge turn off for me.
